Hi All,

Apologies if this is in the wrong community.

I'm looking to get a UPS for my home server. It runs Homeassistant, Plex, and a few other things. I mainly need something to protect from power flickers/blips, and for it to allow a proper shutdown for prolonged power outages.

Here is the power useage on all my devices:

  • Server: 350w
  • NAS: 90w
  • Router: 42w

Any info on what to look for or which model to buy would be greatly appreciated.

I got an eaton 5e.. it works pretty good for my NAS and friends, and works in NUT too.

Edit: I also have a greencell generic UPS for my 3d printer, and it was a nightware to get working with NUT.

Same here and no complains, except I shouldn't have bought the big one with the fan: when it turns on it's really noisy and for some reason it needs to blow air for a long time after the tiniest irregularity in the grid.
